Lee Strobel Show Page
Lee Strobel
Journalist | Author | Founding Director - Lee Strobel Center for Evangelism and Applied Apologetics
Atheist-turned-Christian Lee Strobel, the former award-winning legal editor of The Chicago Tribune, is a New York Times best-selling author of more than forty books and curricula that have sold more than fourteen million copies. He has been described in the Washington Post as “one of the evangelical community’s most popular apologists.”

Lee is the founding director for the Lee Strobel Center for Evangelism and Applied Apologetics at Colorado Christian University near Denver.

He was educated at the University of Missouri (Bachelor of Journalism degree) and Yale Law School (Master of Studies in Law degree). He was a journalist for fourteen years at The Chicago Tribune and other newspapers, winning Illinois’ highest honor for public service journalism and investigative reporting from United Press International.

After probing the evidence for Jesus, Lee became a Christian in 1981. He subsequently became a teaching pastor at three of America’s largest churches and hosted the national network TV program Faith Under Fire. In addition, he taught First Amendment law at Roosevelt University and was Professor of Christian Thought at Houston Baptist University.

In 2017, Lee’s spiritual journey was depicted in an award-winning theatrical-released motion picture, The Case for Christ. Lee has won national awards for his books The Case for Christ, The Case for Faith, The Case for a Creator, and The Case for Grace. His latest book is The Case for Heaven: A Journalist Investigates Evidence for Life After Death (Zondervan, September 2021).

Lee and Leslie Strobel have been married for almost 50 years. Their daughter, Alison, is a novelist, and their son, Kyle, is a professor of spiritual theology at the Talbot School of Theology at Biola University. They have four grandchildren.
Is God Real?: Exploring the Ultimate Question of Life
It's no coincidence that one of the most asked questions on any search engine is: "Is God real?"

When life feels overwhelming, we want to know if there really is a deity who loves us, knows us, and cares about what happens to us. Join investigative journalist and former atheist Lee Strobel on a quest to determine whether we can know with confidence that God is real.

Lee Strobel's landmark book, The Case for Christ, is one of the most respected defenses of Christianity of all time. Now in Is God Real? Lee weaves together material from his previous books with the latest evidence from the most brilliant scientific and philosophical minds to answer the pressing questions on our hearts and minds.

Written for skeptics and believers alike, Is God Real? is a life-changing exploration of the question that matters most.

Book Cover - Emotionally Healthy Christianity
Emotionally Healthy Christianity: Following in the Psychological Footsteps of Christ
The road to emotional health goes through the life of Jesus Christ. He modeled for us what the most important psychological attributes are when it comes to how we, as His followers, are supposed to live our lives. Emotionally Healthy Christianity covers twelve of the most important psychological traits of Christ that we are to focus on in our efforts to experience true emotional health. Included is a 16-week workbook so readers can put what they learn into practice.
Jesus Christ was the perfect expression of psychological health in a human being. With God's help, we can follow in Christ's footsteps and experience a fuller taste of the abundant life.
